Energy and Social Transformations
Maison Suger is pleased to host the seminar series Energy and Social Transformations, organised by GRETS (Research Group on Energy, Technology and Society) at EDF. Each session will provide an opportunity to present and debate recent research in the humanities and social sciences, offering fresh insights into the changes reshaping the world of energy.
GRETS, a research team in the social sciences within EDF’s Research & Development Division, conducts studies on major transformations affecting both the company and society. Its work, drawing on sociology, political science, semiotics, anthropology and linguistics, explores lifestyles of customers, consumers, citizens and employees, transformations in work and organisations, energy transitions and the dynamics of innovation.
For 2026–2027, the seminar series will address four key themes:
- energy transition and mobility
- social acceptability and controversies
- digital transformation
- innovation and organisational change
The seminars will be held in hybrid format: in person at Maison Suger (16 rue Suger, Paris 6th) and online via Teams. An invitation will be sent prior to each session to confirm your preferred mode of participation.
The programme is designed and led by GRETS researchers.
The organisation of the seminars is coordinated by Cécile Caron and Jérôme Cihuelo, with the support of Sylvie Lagauche-Malvoisin.
